Description of the Invention (1) ~ --- The present invention is generally related to the optical table used for transparent media, and the scanning H- Starting from transparent material conversion, especially the 'combination of transparent film adapters and optical table used with the scanner. Background Scanning transparent media such as slides and negatives requires several activities. First of all, the transparent media is exposed on the light platform. If there is no light platform, the transparent media is held directly under the light source such as a chandelier or a window to select the correct negative film. The transparent media is correctly positioned on a scanner dust plate. Since the scanning dust plate is basically not illuminated, any transparent media placed on the scanner platen cannot be filled with m until the scan starts. Therefore, the transparent media must be positioned blindly on the scanner's waste printing plate, that is, the user must not only remember the direction in which the transparent medium glances into the light source, but also must change the correct direction of the transparent media toward the scanner platen. Orientation. Some scanner systems are equipped with a detachable die, which is suitable for supporting and aligning the transparent sheet on the scanner platen. The optical table can be used to correctly position the transparent media in a die. The substrate itself must be, , Blindly positioned on the scanner. To scan transparent media on a flat scanner, a transparent film adapter must be used. The conventional transparent film adapter includes a light source that passes through the transparent medium The light is emitted and passed through the platen of the scanner, so that a transparent media image can be captured by the sensor. Basically, the sensor is a charge light-emitting device (CCD) in the scanner. Therefore, not only the scanner has its own light source The transparent sheet adapter and separate light stage have their light sources. The transparent paper and ceiling pendant lights are in accordance with Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm).

In this way, the erection device 34 (with or without a detachable die 48) will not obstruct or interfere with the light 46 passing through the transparent medium 12. As shown in Figs. 3 and 4, a die 48 can be removed from the transparent plate adapter / optical platen 26 using a temporary connection device 50, 52. Examples of the first temporary connection device 50 in Fig. 3 may be magnets, clips, hooks, and loop-type holders. At least one temporary connection device 50 can be connected to the platen 26 (or optionally to the front surface 14 of the transparent plate adapter / light stage 10), and a corresponding temporary connection device 50 can be connected to any position The lower die 48, but preferably the periphery of the die 48 does not interfere with the transmission of light through the medium 12 mounted in the die 48. Another temporary connection device 52 in Fig. 4 may be constituted by a plurality of brackets, and the brackets are adapted to temporarily support the positioning of the die 48 against the platen 26. The bracket 52 preferably extends across the die 48 to support only the die 48 and should not interfere with the transmission of light through the medium 12 within the die 48. The bracket 52 may be positioned with respect to two or more of the upper edge 54, the lower edge 56, and the side edges 58, 60 (FIG. 6) of the adjacent die 48 to allow the user to slide the die 48 against the platen. 26 while positioning. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4, a bracket 52 may be positioned adjacent to the side edges 58, 60 of the die 48, and a bracket (not shown) may also be adjacent to the lower edge 56 of the die 48 (FIG. 6). ) To support the die 48 especially when the transparent sheet adapter / light stage 10 is opened (Figures i, 2, 8 and 10).

The die 90 can be positioned on the scanner platen 102 to align the transparent sheet adapter / light table 1 on it before, during, or after the optical table operating state (but on the transparent sheet The connector operation status has just started). To facilitate this alignment and completely cover the scanner platen 102 during scanning, the scanner die width ... and / or the scanner die length L2 (preferably both) can be compared with the scanner width wi and the scanner, respectively. The length is the same. To place the transparent plate adapter / light stage 10 in an open or closed position, the transparent plate adapter / light stage 10 can be rotated about an axis AA (defined by hinges 92, 94). The scanner module 90 may have at least one window 96 through which the transparent medium 12 can be scanned while the transparent adapter is in operation. As is known in the art, a graduated window 98 may be provided on the scanner module 90 to allow sampling of the light emitted from the fixed light source 30 (Figures 3 and 4). In the second embodiment shown in Figs. 2, 10, and π, the transparent sheet adapter / light table 10 can be integrally formed in the scanner cover 104. The transparent sheet adapter / optical stage 10 can be substantially the same as the first embodiment in FIG. 丨, but a scanner module is not required in this embodiment (FIG. 9-9). Conversely, the scanner cover 104 may be pivotally connected to the scanner housing 106 (FIG. 2) and the like provided with the hinges 12 and 122. In order to place the transparent sheet adapter / light table 10 in an open or closed position, the scanner cover 104 can be pivoted about a shaft BB with a rotation direction ruler (the shaft is defined by the hinges 120, 122 in FIG. 2). ). The scanner cover 104 in this embodiment can also be removed and replaced with a conventional scanner cover 104 as shown in the figure, so that the transparent film adapter / light table 10 can be used only when needed. use.

Description of the invention (I2) The image data structure in word format. The scanned image 132 can also be used for several purposes, including but not limited to operating, copying, distributing, and storing. The output direction (n) is preferably the same as the input direction (苐 10), so that the user can correctly position the transparent media in the way he sees and gets before scanning. Therefore, referring to Figs. 10 and 11, the present invention also relates to a method for scanning a transparent medium 12 using a scanner 100 including a scanner light source and a scanner platen 102. The first step of this method is to place the transparent medium 12 on the above-mentioned transparent sheet adapter / light stage 10. Secondly, the transparent sheet adapter / light stage 10 is used to position the transparent medium 12 to an input direction 13o. Then, the input direction 130 is directly switched to the scanner platen 102 by closing the transparent plate adapter / light stage 10. Finally, the transparent medium 12 is scanned to obtain a scanned image 132 having an output direction 14o when the transparent medium 12 is illuminated by the fixed light source 30 (Figs. 3 and 4). As described above, the output direction 140 is preferably the same as the input direction 130. ^ -------- Order --------- ^ 9.
